I'm cleaning out my spice cabinet and this is everything I pulled out. I tossed a good 1/3 of it in the garbage. I found a myriad of things in my cabinet: 5 different types of salt, 6 different spice rubs for chicken and steak, old bay, turmeric, mustard powder, sichuan peppers, chicken flavored msg, pickling mix, celery salt, and dill seeds. Wait until you see my liquid seasoning cabinet!

Where's the pocket?
Today I went to one of my favorite places, Stew Leonards. I love Stew's for their fresh produce, meat selection, and of course their coffee which I always get when I'm there. They always have samples and what else can be more fun then eating free samples while I shop. So what does a gourmande like myself get at the market you ask...
chicken liver pate
pita bread
hummus
smoked mozzarella
lamb chops bone in
ribeye steak bone in
lobster salad
I didn't really get too much. My fridge is packed to the max. When I open the freezer door I'm afraid frozen hard things will fall on my feet. Actually I'm in the midst of cleaning and organizing my kitchen. It's a pretty daunting task which I think will take me a couple of days. I feel like I'm throwing things away but it's not creating more space.
Oh yea and the pita bread I got doesn't have pockets. There should be a government regulated rule that says, "Pita bread must have a pocket or else it is Naan." Because seriously what is the point of pita if it doesn't have a pocket? Where am I going to stuff my hummus and cucumbers? When I was little the pocket in pita bread AMAZED me. And it still does. How do they get the pocket in there? Is it magic?

Happy Chinese New Year
Here are some pictures that I forgot to upload during Chinese New Year. I think the best part of CNY, well aside from getting red envelopes stuffed with money, is munching on the big vat of shrimp chips my grandma makes only during this holiday. Getting together with the family to eat is always fun too. The thin black noodle joke being grandma's hair never gets old.
I hope this year is filled with good health, happiness, laughter, prosperity, and good eats for everyone!
